Where is the Datasheet View in SharePoint 2010

If you have installed Office 2010 64-bit to a 64-bit OS machine, you may find out you are not able to use Datasheet view in a library or list. This will happen to users who is working on a single machine or VM environment with SharePoint 2010 and Office 2010 installed together.

So, what can you do?

According to Microsoft, you can install Office 2010 32-bit instead. The other option is mentioned in this blog, install Access Runtime for 2007 or 2010. When that blog was published, Access Runtime 2010 is still in Beta version. Now you download the full version from here.
